First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how to keep a program called ROSE, which prevents postpartum depression, running in clinics that serve low-income pregnant women. Researchers tested different levels of support—like coaching—to see what clinics need to keep offering the program long-term. The goal was to find the most cost-effective way to help clinics sustain this proven prevention service.

Study enrollment began with enrollment of clinics. Inclusion criteria for clinics were: 1. outpatient, 2. provide prenatal services, 3. estimate at least 30% of their pregnant patients received some kind of public assistance (such as federal or state cash assistance, food stamps, subsidized housing, and/or health insurance such as Medicaid), 4. have at least 3 new pregnant people per month on average (i.e., enough patient flow to run ROSE), and 5. agree to study procedures. Inclusion criteria were for the clinic itself; once the clinic was included, any pregnant person within the agency could receive ROSE. Participants were clinic personnel, and they were enrolled within clinic. Their inclusion criteria were: 1. age 18 or older 2. someone chosen by the agency to respond to quarterly survey questions about clinical delivery of ROSE (the "clinical respondent"); 3. someone chosen by the agency to respond to quarterly surveys about operational (billing, scheduling) aspects of ROSE delivery (the "operational respondent," which could be the same or a different person than the "clinical respondent"); 4. all ROSE facilitators for the agency (who completed self-rated ROSE adherence forms). Exclusion Criteria: * None
